PLESHERTON A very pretty house wedding was solemnized on Wednesday evening April 25, 1917, at the residence of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Lever, when thein eldest daughter. Elva Mildred, was united in the holy bonds of matrimony to Mr. Charles H. Martin, a popular young man of East Mountain, Kim- berley. The wedding took place at 5.30 p.m., the ceremony being conâ€" ducted by Rev. James Dudget‘m, pas- tor of the Methodist church. The bride. who was given away by her brother, Harold, entered the room to the strains of Mendelssolin’s wedding march, played by Mrs. Eniâ€" erson Wickens. The bridal party took their place beneath an artist- ically decorated evergreen arch. The bride was prettily attired in cream silk, enriched with silk em- broidered net trimmed with pearl ornaments. She wore a wreath of orange blossoms, while the groom wore a bouquet of the same. The bride‘s bouquet was of carnations, sweet peas, roses and maidenhair fern. The young couple were un-i attended’. After congratulations, about 60 guests entered the prettily decorated teaâ€"room. and partook of a dainty wedding ‘repast. Mr. and Mrs. Martin will reside at Eugenia. The presents were numerous and mstly. showing the esteem in which the young couple were held.
